Aims & Scope

The Journal of Metabolic Health is a peer-reviewed, clinically oriented open access journal covering advances in metabolic health and related disorders. The journal focuses on pathophysiology, prevention, management, and advancing therapy for different patient populations with metabolic health issues, including obesity, metabolic syndrome, type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and other conditions associated with insulin resistance and inflammation. Articles published in the journal will encompass original research with a broad biomedical approach from bench to bedside, including basic research and clinical case studies. In addition, the journal will feature review articles, perspectives, case studies, case reports and editorials to provide comprehensive coverage and critical insights into the field. The content will be of interest to an academic and clinician-based audience, including medical practitioners, clinical educators, dietitians, nutritionists, nurse practitioners, pharmacists, and other healthcare professionals involved in the study and management of metabolic health disorders. Submissions in English, comprising full articles, will be considered for publication in the Journal of Metabolic Health. By disseminating high-quality research and promoting multidisciplinary collaborations, the Journal of Metabolic Health aims to contribute to a better understanding of metabolic health and its implications for patient care and outcomes.
